We agree with all the good reviews of the collector. We stayed here after a hectic 2 week tour of Morocco. It was wonderfull to relax and make our own breakfast in the well stocked kitchen. Karel has thought of everything that you would want, from bacon & eggs to yoghurt and fresh fruit and the lovely Dutch bread and... more

We stayed at The Collector for almost one week and had a great visit. The location is excellent close to museums and walking distance to center of the city. Rooms are very nice, very clean, well kept. You make your own breakfast in a kitchen that is stocked with everything you need or want. Excellent choice for Amsterdam. more

My partner and I spent eight wonderful nights at "The Collector" and found that it suited our needs perfectly. Karel is the perfect host and will gladly offer assistance whenever needed. "The Collector" is within a five minute walk from the Van Gogh Museum and a short tram ride (or a very manageable walk) to the center of Amsterdam. Our... more

This B&B is in a lovely terraced period building on the outskirts of all the main attractions in Amsterdam. A short tram ride takes you to the centre from outside the B&B, or it's an easy 5 to 10 min walk to things like the Van Gogh Museum. You make your own breakfast in a tidy little kitchen with lots... more

Every wonderful thing that has been said on this forum about Karel Poels and his Collector B and B is true and then some. We spent a week there in August of this year and could not have been happier. From the impeccably clean rooms to the access to a fully stocked kitchen to the kindness of Karl doing a... more

It's a really nice place to stay, very comfortable and very quiet. The hosts are very nice people and helped us with everything. It's a little bit away of the downtown, but it will take you 5 min by bycicle to get there and it's worth it, because the neighbourhood is so quiet you'll love to wake up in the... more

We spent 12 days at "The Collector B&B" (partly work and partly vacation) and this was the best experience we have ever had. Everything was perfect: location (both central and quiet), room (spacious, clean, and comfortable), breakfast (excellent choice of food, large well-equipped kitchen), and, of course, the host, Karel, who was always there when we needed him. I special... more

The Collector is a three bedroom B&B. My wife and I stayed for a week while I attended a conference. The rooms are very large and comfortable, with two at the back overlooking a garden and the other facing the street, which is the one we had. Each room has a small balcony. The street noise on the largest bedroom... more

My boyfriend and I recently visited Amsterdam and we stayed at the Collector based on some of the reviews we found in TripAdvisor. If we ever go back to Amsterdam we would definetely stay at the same place. It was exactly what we were looking for a nice, clean B&B with a very European flavor. We were lucky to get... more
